We have 2 small dogs that we got as puppies right when Covid hit. Karen has helped us with their socialization and some small behavior problems. Karen really cares about her "students" and tailors the training to each individual dogs needs. She worked around our schedule and we can't thank her enough.

Aunt Karen has been there for us since we brought our sibling English Springer Spaniel boys home when they were 8 weeks old. She’s so knowledgeable and has helped us with what, at times, has felt like an impossible task. She knows all the tricks and tools/equipment for training. Her property (and home) are set up perfectly for training and also for just plain old playtimes. We and our boys, Moji and Widget, just love Aunt Karen and highly recommend her.

We were lucky to find “Aunt Karen’s lucky Dogs” when we got our new pup.We had dogs before but this time wanted our puppy to grow up with the right habits. Karen was amazing. She is extremely well-educated about dog behavior and training. She helped us learn what to do and understand how to respond best to our dog’s personality. Plus she is a lot of fun! Karen is methodical without being dogmatic. She was available by text or phone any time we had a question or problem and genuinely cared about our puppy’s progress. We would highly recommend her!
Aunt Karen, her facility and her methods are fantastic. Over the course of an hour and a half, she taught us so much about our new rescue pup, allayed fears, showed us things about our girl we would have never expected! We have a plan now and feel so much better about our pup's future. So glad we found her and excited to work with her more. Could not be happier.
